Description
Objective: To explore the clinical significance of changes of serum CEA, NSE, CA19-9 and VEGF levels in patients with lung cancer. Methods: Serum CEA, NES, CA19-9 (with RIA) and VEGF (with ELISA) levels were detected in 31 patients with lung cancer and 35 controls. Results: The levels of serum CEA, NSE, CA19-9 and VEGF were significantly higher in the patients than those in controls (P<0.01). Serum CEA, NSE, CA19-9 levels were positively correlated with the VEGF levels (r=0.6218, 0.6101, 0.6317, P<0.01). Conclusion: Serum CEA, NSE, CA19-9 and VEGF levels were closely related to the diseases process of lung cancer and were of prognostic values. (authors)
